Are the wheels coming off that trolley yet?
Not necessarily. A president doesn’t have to bribe a governor. However, offering a little perk like a board membership for his wife is probably something Rahm would do as second nature, and especially would do so if Rod had some semi-juicy inside dope on the holy O. A little offer just to nail down the loose cannon.
I think that’s what happened, but the nimRod wanted something big up front and so went into a more or less explicit rant for the tape.
All in all, it will probably show that O and Rahm are very familiar with the felony-as-a-rule SOP in Illinois.

Emanuel is Obama’s brain.
Rahm, "I never had sex with, er, talked to the Illinois Governor. Hell, I don't even know him."
Hey Zer0, How are you hanging in there with the big boys? How's your smoking and facial tics coming along? Enjoy your ride. The fun is just beginning.
